Ms Hutchison's Homework Page

Dear parents,

There is only one page in the workbook for children to complete at home this session and half of that can’t be completed because of the Covid restrictions! So instead I would like you to focus on the Mass responses with your child. In normal times you would be taking your child to Mass every week and they would learn the responses by listening to you and the people around them. However it is much harder for the children this year so I ask that you spend some time supporting them with the worksheet and powerpoint attached. In class we have watched key parts of the Mass from St Joseph’s on YouTube and this would be a good activity to do after looking at the information attached.

This is the last week of the current homework grid. The children have their RE booklet to complete Session 4, Sumdog for online numeracy and new this week a spelling task!

Spelling Words for the Lollipop and Candy Groups:

running

swimming

stopped

happened

mumbled

speechless

practising

whispered

different

frightened

These words have been introduced over the past weeks. Ask your child to spell them. They can write them down on the back of old envelopes, whiteboard or even say them aloud. Ask your child to think of an interesting sentence for each one. You many choose to ask them to tell you the sentence or if you prefer write down. Exercises like this are a great way of using up the junk mail coming through our doors. You do not need to return it to school. The children regularly complete dictation exercises in the class using a range of words so I will be able to see their hard word in their jotters.
